Treatment for Cluster Headache
Anticoagulants used in Cluster Headache management, such as heparin or low molecular weight heparin, primarily work by inhibiting coagulation factors and preventing blood clot formation. Their potential therapeutic effect in Cluster Headache is hypothesized to involve reducing inflammation and improving microvascular blood flow in cerebral vasculature, which may help modulate the neurovascular mechanisms underlying headache pathogenesis.
